Description

The Gibson Hummingbird Standard EC Left-Handed takes one of the most iconic acoustics ever made and tailors it for modern stage use, with a comfortable cutaway and a powerful Baggs HiFi DNA pickup system. With its solid Sitka spruce and mahogany construction, classic square-shoulder body and instantly recognisable Hummingbird pickguard, this is a left-handed electro acoustic that delivers rich, versatile tone and a timeless look, whether you are strumming big chords or picking intricate lead lines. First introduced in 1960, the Hummingbird has long been a favourite for singer-songwriters and rock players alike, and the Standard EC version builds on that heritage with improved upper fret access and a premium onboard pickup system. A comfortable SlimTaper mahogany neck, smooth rosewood fretboard and high-quality TUSQ and Grover hardware keep the feel fast and reliable, while the gloss nitrocellulose finish lets the Heritage Cherry Sunburst top really shine. Iconic Hummingbird Tone, Modern Playability With a solid Sitka spruce top and solid mahogany back and sides, the Hummingbird Standard EC delivers the warm, balanced voice that has made this model a studio and stage staple for decades. Scalloped X-bracing helps the top respond quickly and dynamically, so you get a lively acoustic tone that works just as well for delicate fingerpicking as it does for bold, percussive strumming. The addition of a cutaway means you can now take that classic sound all the way up the neck, opening up more melodic and soloing possibilities. Left-Handed Comfort with SlimTaper Neck This left-handed model is built from the ground up for southpaw players, with a mahogany neck carved to Gibson’s comfortable Round SlimTaper profile. The bound rosewood fretboard with a 12-inch radius and 20 standard frets feels familiar and easy under the fingers, making long sessions and live sets less tiring. Mother-of-pearl split parallelogram inlays complete the classic look while helping you navigate the neck with confidence. Baggs HiFi DNA Pickup System The Gibson-exclusive Baggs HiFi DNA system is designed to capture the natural character of the Hummingbird without compromising its acoustic voice. Two lightweight sensors mounted to the bridge plate feed dedicated preamps, delivering a rich, full amplified tone with impressive gain-before-feedback performance. Discreet soundhole-mounted volume and tone controls keep your stage sound easy to tweak mid-song, while remaining out of the audience’s line of sight. Classic Looks and Reliable Hardware Multi-ply body binding, a gloss nitrocellulose lacquer finish and the famous tortoiseshell-coloured Hummingbird pickguard give this guitar a look that is instantly recognisable on any stage. A rosewood belly-up bridge with TUSQ saddle, TUSQ bridge pins and a TUSQ nut work together with Grover Rotomatic tuners to provide stable tuning and consistent intonation, so you can focus on the performance rather than the setup. Key Features Solid Sitka Spruce and Mahogany Construction – A solid Sitka spruce top paired with solid mahogany back and sides produces a rich, balanced tone with clear highs, warm mids and focused lows, ideal for both strumming and fingerstyle playing. Cutaway Hummingbird EC Body – The square-shoulder Hummingbird EC body with cutaway blends classic Gibson acoustic character with improved upper fret access, giving you more freedom for solos, melodic lines and modern playing styles. Baggs HiFi DNA Pickup System – The Gibson-exclusive Baggs HiFi DNA system uses dual bridge-plate sensors and dedicated preamps to deliver a natural, dynamic amplified sound with excellent feedback resistance, plus discreet soundhole volume and tone controls. SlimTaper Neck and Premium Hardware – A comfortable Round SlimTaper mahogany neck, rosewood fretboard, Grover Rotomatic tuners and TUSQ nut and saddle provide a smooth playing feel, solid tuning stability and reliable performance on stage or in the studio.

Played by greats such as Eric Clapton, Jimmy Page, and Angus Young, Gibson guitars continue to represent timeless quality, innovation, and a deep connection between player and instrument.

Acoustic Guitars

Acoustic guitars produce their sound naturally through the vibration of the strings and body, offering a direct and expressive playing experience. They come in a wide range of styles, including steel string and classical designs, each with its own feel and tonal character. Body shape, wood choice, and construction all influence warmth, projection, and balance, making acoustics suitable for everything from gentle fingerstyle to confident strumming. Whether used for songwriting, practice, or performance, acoustic guitars provide a simple, honest connection between the player and the music.

Electro-Acoustic Guitars

Electro-acoustic guitars combine the natural sound and feel of an acoustic guitar with built-in electronics for amplification. Fitted with pickups and preamp controls, they allow you to plug directly into an amp, PA system, or recording setup while retaining an acoustic character. They’re ideal for live performance, rehearsal, and home recording, offering volume control and tonal adjustment without relying solely on microphones. Electro-acoustic guitars suit players who want the warmth and responsiveness of an acoustic instrument with the flexibility to play amplified when needed.

Guitar

Explore electric, acoustic and bass guitars across a wide range of playing styles, body shapes and specifications. The most useful differences include scale length, construction, pickup type, neck profile, materials and whether the instrument is intended for amplified, acoustic or hybrid use. Use the narrower guitar categories and feature tags to compare instruments with similar designs rather than relying on appearance alone.

Acoustic Guitar

Acoustic guitars produce their main sound through the vibrating strings and body. This tag includes steel-string, classical and electro-acoustic instruments across several body sizes. Construction, scale length, neck dimensions and an optional pickup system are useful points of comparison.

Left Handed

Left-handed guitars are built specifically for left-handed players, with the body shape, controls, and string orientation reversed to provide a natural and comfortable playing experience. Available across electric, acoustic, classical, and bass styles, they offer the same variety of tones, features, and build quality as right-handed models. Using a properly designed left-handed guitar helps with balance, technique, and confidence, allowing players to focus on developing their sound without having to adapt to an instrument that doesn’t suit the way they play.
